was six and declared she wanted to write reviews of the books I read to her. Now for the first time she is being featured with a review she wrote on her own for a book she read on her own. The reading and writing part were required for school. She asked if I could put it on the blog too, so here it is: The Black Cauldron Reviewed by Bit (age 8) When I read The Black Cauldron by Lloyd Alexander I sometimes had to fight back tears or laughter. When I thought about Taran and the sacrifices he made for his friends i smiled and cried at the same time. My favorite character was Eilonwy. I like Eilonwy because she is a lot like me. She likes cooking and cleaning and also likes adventures. Taran is my second favorite character. I think he kind and sacrificial. The search party Taran and Eilonwy are in is made up of good people.

A prison that once you enter you never leave so eventually the prison contains, not the original prisoners, but their descendants. Incarceron by Catherine Fisher has an almost irresistible premise. It is a unique setting for a fantasy novel and Fisher imported into it traditional fantasy tropes. There is a quest, a missing heir, plenty of ruffians who ambush our intrepid heroes, and an evil sorceress(?). Despite the prison setting there is also a journey (because it is required).  I really enjoyed how Fisher merged the futuristic setting with the traditional fantasy elements. Reading Incarceron was an intense and exciting experience.  Incarceron was created to be a prison, but also a a Paradise. All the undesirables were sent with a group of wise scholars into its mazes of ducts, streets, metal forests, and halls. Incarceron was programmed to provide all they needed and to regulate its world.  Now, centuries late </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'

class='post-snippet snippet-container r-snippet-container'> <div class='snippet-item r-snippetized'> Every time Ship Breaker popped up on my radar last year I saw words like "dystopian" and "futuristic" surrounding it.  Dystopian is not a genre I particularly enjoy so I decided to pass on reading it.  Then it won The Printz Award and I decided to go ahead and let this be my one dystopian

enjoyed reading it very much. Summary (from book jacket): In America's Gulf Coast region, where grounded oil tankers are being broken down for parts, Nailer, a teenage boy, works the light crew, scavenging for copper wiring just

mean, I can't be the absolute last person in the world to have read these books.  You won't find anything here about the plot  you wouldn't discover from reading the descriptions of all three books on the jackets.       In a future dystopian North America the country of Panem is controlled by the Capitol.  The people who inhabit the Capitol are, for the most part, useless gluttonous voyeurs who run around dressed like Lady Gaga.  There are 12 surrounding districts the Capitol oppresses.  When The Hunger Games begins it is 74 years after the end of a revolt from the districts.  The 13th district was destroyed, the other 12 surrendered.  As part of that surrender every year each district must send two Tributes, one boy and one girl, between the ages of 12 and 18 to compete in a televised fight to the death.  Do you remember that story "The Lottery" every one of us (Americans at least) read in j </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'
